4K FULL BIKE BUILD: SPECIALIZED S-WORKS TARMAC SL8

[@M3GRSD]

One of the most soothing videos I've ever seen. Love that this SL8 was set up with tubes and not tubeless too.

[@dereknovaes4217]

What a GREAT video… so engaging and the choice of music too…. Love the display “box!”

[@js_cycles]

Thank you so much!

[@Christian-sh9uh]

All that top tech and you put prehistoric butyl tubes on it.

[@robertnash9809]

Strong hands !!

[@SCWgreg]

Yes please.

[@ChrissibabyUK]

Absolutely stunning to see your passionate work. And the result.

[@js_cycles]

Thank you very much!

[@user-dragonball-i4y]

❤🎉Nice Elegant white road bike🚴 SL8…Light weight disc brake bike

[@js_cycles]

We agree!

[@mikewikstrom3416]

Awesome, always fun to watch a bike being built. I’ll look the other way on tubes being used because the rest was cool.

[@js_cycles]

Thanks!

[@jeremyversluys]

Amazing video, truly admiring to see the skill that goes into this.

[@js_cycles]

Thank you very much!

素人が2つだけ言わせてもらうと１．トルクレンチは1回以上クリックすると過大にトルクがかかって危険です。1回だけです。２．shimanoのcrankは左サイドのプラスチックの増す締めボルトはきつく締めるとCrankが回らなくなります。強く締めないようにプラスチックでできているのです。

[@FacundoDaSilva161986]

Amazing work, amazing bike

[@js_cycles]

Thanks a lot!

[@super_ori]

my choice will always be the Tarmac ❤

[@theocroguennec9089]

Amazing bike 🤯🤯

[@Cortes19882012]

Great build!

[@js_cycles]

Thanks!

[@krishnansrinivasan830]

Awesome :)

[@hartwinfritz]

kindly, include a weighing video of that bike. t.y

[@The_yorkshire_cyclist]

Nicely done ash 👍 loving these style of videos

[@js_cycles]

Glad you like them!

[@fassive]

Funny how youre working on this bike with mostly just a multitool, great build!

[@stevocanuck]

now i understand why it cost so much to get a bike serviced from a mechanic. this looks so complicated and sophisticated

[@veritasdivina]

So if you want to remove some spacers, you would have to bleed the brakes, cut the brake cable and re-fill the brake oil all over again?

[@samuel8590]

That depends if he left the brake cables long enough. That's the new way with these bikes.

[@GeorgeD1]

In this case...it looks like it. Other bike brands have open spacers - in two parts or just open on one end and flexible enough to open and remove from around the steerer tube, so you just need to loosen the handlebar and "open" the spacer and remove it.

[@sbccbc7471]

​@@GeorgeD1Impossible, that's not how Specialized designed their spacers for the Tarmac SL7 and Venge V3. The spacers can definitely split open to allow cockpit height changes without recabling the entire bike. I see the split line in the front of the spacers. They're not that stupid to not design it that way.

[@diwang4572]

People already got sl8 in retail? Nice bike build btw! Can't wait to upgrade my sl7 to a sworks sl8

[@js_cycles]

Yes, we have the SL8 in stock and ready to go!

[@stfu6397]

“Upgrade”

[@AbaGobye]

Where do you get the money?

[@SAnderson77]

When your a roadie you always find the money somewhere 😂. I sold my SL7 frame set about 4 weeks ago when all the more convincing rumours started. I Should pick up my frame sometime next week and maybe even get a custom paint job like my SL7 Gotta love new bike day 😁

[@Martin-ls9bz]

​@@stfu6397how will I win my cat 4 races without a sniffer ?

[@samueljohnclark]

Noice

[@ciw8688]

Does the bike have the same t47 bb as the sl7?

[@js_cycles]

Hi, it is a BSA threaded BB!

[@mk-yg7op]

SL7 has BSA, not T47. SL8 also has BSA.

[@mikicastan]

So 30 mm axle will not fit

[@sbccbc7471]

​@@mikicastanIt will, but with the small bearings in most BSA-threaded BBs for 30 mm spindles, it's not ideal, unless that BB is a Hambini, which uses 6806 bearings, which are relatively oversized compared to its competition.

[@tryalo9572]

Can i know what youre putting on the crankset at 8:41 , and what at 7:59 for the bottom bracket?

[@martijndekker1134]

Its shimano bearing grease

[@lazyac_]

why grease on saddle carbon rails?

[@Channel1722]

Carbon paste

[@jerryjin3427]

A bike build video uploaded in 4k literally the day after the bike launch... I don't like the sl8, but you guys are insane...

[@lolipuni1]

what is front derailleur support? Made by a 3D printer? or official? it's nice.

[@blinzi69]

how did you determine hose length?

[@GeorgeD1]

You route the hydraulic hose, press down the handlebar fully, pull out the hose as far as it will go and then rotate the handlebar to get the tolerance to allow for free rotation of the handlebar. Then you mount the shifters roughly in place and check how much more hose you need - either insert it fully and check how much it goes into the shifter and account for that, or just...when you've done it a couple of times, there's visually a certain...curve...in the molding on the outside of the shifter which corresponds to where the hose bottoms out (it's not "official", but it's there).Then mark and cut.

[@resmaadityaanggayuno3494]

the back is similar to the SL6, so the maximum design for better performance is the SL6 model, it's proven that it often wins stages, in my opinion the SL8 frame is a combination of the SL8 frame and the Venge headtube

[@konigsegg_1to1]

Do you mean “combination of the SL6 frame”

[@Robert-mn8gc]

Would ❤ 2 build up an SL8 2 my own Specs . Using my 1st Generation of the Roval Rapide CLX Aero Wheelsets 51/60 Clinchers. 1400 grams . A 54 cm bike would end up around 6.6 kilos using Time Xpro 15 Pedals.

[@js_cycles]

Good choice!

[@Schlammpeizger]

4:19 slam the stem!

[@wbuchmueller]

>10k bike >standard butyl tubes 🤔🤔🤔

[@ResmeN]

Lovely build & thank God it's not tubeless.

[@ealtvideo]

The design between fork with head tube a bit strange

[@Anon.User.602]

Pure beaty.

[@Stayhesh]

Building a sl8 with a multi tool lol

[@AMlRY]

Amazing🤍

[@js_cycles]

Thanks 🔥

[@kubackjeee]

That's one ugly bike gotta say

[@vadusa]

With SRAM AXS will be better 😊
